Hello from Brooklyn!
« on: June 04, 2012, 12:13:29 PM »
Hi there!So, I finally joined after months and months of lurking... I'm an adult collector, mainly of Monster High Dolls, although I still have my ponies from the 80's (in rough shape, but very loved) My MH obsession has led me to a renewed love for my ponies, among other dolls & playthings!I'm 38 and have one daughter, who is 8, and we love to play together! I'm a LOT more obsessed with toys than she is, probably because, like a lot of adult collectors, I had a kind of sad childhood. My few toys and dolls were what made me happy, even though I didn't have much. Now that I am a grown up (?) I can finally get the toys I want... and love!I have started to do some customizing of my dolls, and bought hair for my ponies. I love to do little dioramas and take pictures. Starting to learn how to make molds and I think it would be fun to modify ponies in this way!I am currently obsessing over Catwalk Kitties and Nikki Cat. I very often see lots of MLPS at my local thrift store, usually $2 for a bag of 4-5. I'm not sure yet what ponies are the best to look for (aside from the originals) so I hope to learn here and maybe rehome those ponies in need! :)

 to the Arena. I didn't have all that many ponies when I was growing up either.  Isn't it great to be able to make up for in now though and buy practically any toy that takes your fancy!  I am sure you will enjoy being part of the forum :frolic:

Welcome!

I'm enjoying sharing toys with my kids, especially vintage 80s toys. I understand what you mean! :)

Welcome to the Arena from out east of you. Usually if a bag of ponies has two or more and is $3 and under you can do well reselling them.
